Tony,
Lithium Ion is a different chemistry than li-po.
I would choose to be safe rather than sorry and buy both the battery and
charger.
If you are going to be operating portable over a long weekend, consider
a 2nd battery.
Yes, it can be powered from an external power source through the 2.1mm
coaxial jack. For best results, the power supply should have a voltage
of 13.8 volts or more - up to 15 volts is OK.
BTW - the internal battery can plug into that jack as well.
73,
Don W3FPR

Hi Don,
I am sure they have done it correctly but I have a number of different
charges for li-po and other type batts so was just thinking of either
not getting the charger or just providing another batt as it only
seems to connect via 2wire connection for powering the rig.
